No matter how many trucks they roll, how many hours/days of "scheduled maintenance" they have, my Comcast connection is still as unreliable as it was 8 years ago.

What has improved over that time are my T-Mobile connections. 200+Mbps speeds, better coverage, higher data limits, lower prices. I have quite a few places I ditched DSL/Cable internet connections and just tossed a T-Mobile hotspot in the corner and called it a day. I don't even know T-Mobile's tech support number and would have to look it up. I have multiple numbers for Comcast memorized by heart.
Yep. Nothing is going to change as long as the FCC is controlled by a Republican.
